Southern Utah residents awakened this morning to damp, cool weather, with hail falling in parts of the St. George area and snow falling in the Pine Valley area. The wet weather has officials in the Santa Clara area - the scene of a dike breach about one month ago - paying close attention to runoff from the on-and-off heavy rains that have accompanied the other precipitation.

The heavy rains caused some flash-flooding with water and mud rushing down streets in parts of Toquerville as water rolled off hills surrounding the town.
